+# Flatbuffers
+
+FlatBuffers is a cross platform serialization library architected for maximum
+memory efficiency. It allows you to directly access serialized data without
+parsing/unpacking it first, while still having great forwards/backwards
+compatibility. It was originally created at Google for game development and
+other performance-critical applications.
